der, die, das - Remember the gender of a german noun with an easy trick 1
In the German language there are three articles “der”, “die” and “das”. Every noun has one gender, “maskulin”, “feminine” or “neutrum”. For example: The word “man” has a masculine gender. We say “der Mann”. The word “house” has a neuter gender. We say “das Haus”. The word “woman” has a feminine gender. We say “die Frau”. But sometimes it is not logical which gender we choose (But sometimes there is no logic behind which we choose): The word “car” has a neuter gender. Das Auto. The word “bike” has a neuter gender too. Das Fahrrad. But the word “train” has a masculine gender. Der Zug. I don´t know why we say “das Auto” but “der Zug”. Maybe it is an old grammatical decision.
